1. Genetically modified food
By: Roberto Sami

2. GMF
Uncover the truth of transgenic food means a
difficult questions for answer.
The environment defensors want to ban it.
The biggers multinational have bet all her future in
this technology and they say it is safe.
It has been many controls and little is known
about the effects.

6. Traditional crops
Potato contains a toxin called Glicoalcaaloic
cause poisoning
It is possible that
these toxins
are reproduced in other
crops

7. Celery
Contains a chemical that contact with luckforar
becomes toxic.

collectors were a great itchy skin caused by this toxin

8. Compared genetic engineering is much more
accurate.
Is the introduction of individual genes in plants. It is
able to get something that traditional farmers had
never achieved. Exchange genes between different
life forms.

10. The current scientific theory of nature, holds that
living things
Plants Animals Insects
are controlled by the DNA

11. Genes control the growth of the species.
The transfer of a single gene does not alter the
essence of a living.
Example: A tomato with the gene of a
vitamin swine is still just a tomato.

GM advocates promise that these, are more
Nutritious, increaseand crops and decrease the use of
chemicals.
This are the solution for hunger in the world.
• Increasingly use more chemicals known and
cause environmental problems.
• Create jobless and marginalization.
• Increase the economic dependency.
• contaminate crops

13. Grown on large scales, GM will stop at:
1. Alimentos
2. Medicines
3. Biodiversity
Scientists have found alarming results:
 Allergies in farmers pollen inhalation
 Didn’t know the transgenics effects

18. Greenpeace was revolutionized by adding GMF in
food. They came to take soy in front of the home
of British Prime Minister.
 The farmers saw their crops weredestroyed.
 The company were attacked.
 The supermarket were forced to remove
products from the shelves
 Broad movement for failing to
consult the GMF products.

19. The European Union voted to ban not to
market any till further notice GMF.
GMOs go against the will of god.
Can not prove they are safe.
